1. Are you sure you do have installed a version that is compatible with Oxygen 2.1.3?

2. If yes, try to activate "Battery percentage" in the Oxygen Settings (or turn it off if it is already activated)

3. If no, check again. Those icons are only in the framework files which get replaced by the theme so those blue icons must be in your flashable theme files.
[Desire Android Development] bobsie41:
1. Yes it is the correct Oxygen 2.1.3 version, i re-downloaded to make sure.

2. If i activate 'battery percentage i get the green battery but not the circular one-as expected and if i un-check it i go back to the blue circular one.

3. Wasn't aware i had flashable theme files after full wipe and format. Where are they?

Is there anything i can adjust manually? (i am s-off)

Your help is much appreciated. :confused:
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
1. I didn't mean Oxygen itself but hoolmes green circular mod. Since you get a blue circular battery symbol I would guess you have flashed the wrong file.

2. You should see a number and a vertical bar next it. Or do you see the native battery symbol?

3. You have a flashable zip-file. Your theme files are in that file ;)
[Desire Android Development] Fat Fred:
Thanks to the dev for this mod - I've just come from CM 7 and find this one fits my Desire's bill perfectly. About 48 hrs battery life too - fantastic!

adamg released oxygen on nexus s. time for a phone change?
[Desire Android Development] justinkb:
I would agree, were it not that the Nexus S is not exactly high-end anymore either ;-)
[Desire Android Development] suiller:
I really hope Adam wont abandon completely the desire world, not only because I suppose his (+ Thalamus) work is really appreciated by all desire community but also because I don't see a really step forward switching desire to nexus s

again an aosp rom can give a new life to a relative old device such as our beloved desire, the hope is to see soon as possible an unlocked bootloader provided by htc (as promised) for all S series (incredible, desire, etc...)

and for last... I can't switch to samsung brand, they seem a (very) bad iphone copy... so Adam stay with us :D
[Desire Android Development] vnvman:
Well i wouldn't mind switching to anything else...atm htc is making phones with awesome build quality (alluminium+glass+little rubber ftw), but the cpu/gpu package isn't evolving much.

This is not what keeps me away the most from a new phone anyway: what actually bothers me is google's lame attitude of not making the os suitable to new hardware. Feels like everything died after the froyo update, even honeycomb is just a pathetic reskin, and still it doesn't feature the promised gpu accelerated ui...

You don't really wanna spend money on a new piece of hardware when you already know that software on it sucks that bad :rolleyes:
[Desire Android Development] MrPontus:
from what I have heard the promised GPU acceleration is to come in ICS, Google never said it would come earlier.
[Desire Android Development] :
They claim it was implemented in honeycomb (3.0).

They made that claim when they closed the ticket on the tracker as 'released'. They stated it was included in Android 3.0.

No mention of any further enhancements in 'Ice Cream Sandwich' were made.

However, none of the honeycomb tablets I have seen show *any* signs of a hardware accelerated UI based on the horrendous scrolling in the launcher and laggy app drawer, so I'm not quite sure where they have implemented it.

Either they imagined implementing it, or they are lying, or they 'forgot' to implement it in the most important place, the launcher, which is just stupid.

Anyway, I'm going off topic here, feel free to ignore my complaining, but a smooth UI isn't too much to ask is it? Really?
[Desire Android Development] mortenmhp:
Well gpu 2d rendering of the ui was indeed implementet on 3.0 and onwards(and used in all system apps including the launcher). The implementation and the thoughts behind it is documented in this interesting keynote from io 2011:

http://www.google.com/events/io/2011/sessions/accelerated-android-rendering.html

vnvman: also hc and 3.1 actually implemented plenty of interesting api's(take a look through the keynotes of io 2011, some of them cover the changes quite well) as well as making some important fixes to existing ones. However those are not interesting to anyone until ics, when an app using those api's is actually usable on more than 1-2% of android devices.(this is partially fixed by the market now/soon allowing several different .apk files for different devices, but when ics is out hopefully within a year a good part of the market will have moved to this.)
[Desire Android Development] :
Shame they 'forgot' to accelerate the launcher then...
[Desire Android Development] vnvman:
**** happens! They must be looking into that right now :rolleyes:
[Desire Android Development] mortenmhp:
Well they(romainguy) stated officially that it is implemented in all system apps on hc including the launcher..

But without the source we will be very unlikely to be able to check that statement ;)
[Desire Android Development] haker305:
Don't want to even think about switching to Nexus S, just bought brand new Desire a month ago :).
[Desire Android Development] vnvman:
Ok, then why when i'm scrolling a xoom it still lags? :confused:
[Desire Android Development] yabadabadooo:
stupid question: is there any way to ****in change the alarm clock ring? need to put custom ring in!
[Desire Android Development] enuazeal:
yes u can, put custom ring in /sdcard/media/audio/alarms
[Desire Android Development] mortenmhp:
Now some would argue that i'm not the one to ask(I'm merely quoting the head of the development section for this part of android in google trying to correct some misconceptions). I have absolutely no clue and no way to find out, as for now the sourcecode for hc isn't available. So noone outside google will be likely to answer that :)
[Desire Android Development] yabadabadooo:
folder doesnt exist.

i have created one but it still not workin?

edit:

found

system/media/audio/alarms

but cant paste anything in it.

system only reading or something blah
[Desire Android Development] loizoskounios:
Okay, something is seriously wrong with my setup. I finally S-OFF-ed and installed the Oxygen HBOOT (checked MD5Sum and everything worked like a charm).

Now, after finishing with that stressful and time-consuming procedure, I boot and I start installing stuff from the Market. At first, everything was okay, but now as soon as an application starts installing I get a soft reboot and I have to enter my PIN for my SIM Card to load again. This occurs every time that notification bar does that flip thing to show you that an application is installing. Any help, guys? I can't be arsed to re-flash!

Edit: OK, apparently the ROM decided to heal itself. Man, you are good, Adam! :-D
[Desire Android Development] :
I don't recall it being said that it was implemented in all system apps including the launcher.

What I recall being said was that there was an API available for hardware acceleration for application developers to use as they wished.

You don't *need* the source code to know that the honeycomb launcher is *not* hardware accelerated, you can tell by the performance.

Maybe they implemented it and 'forgot' to turn it on...it wouldn't be the first time there has been a major omission...

Meh, whatever, all I'm saying is they need to sort it out for that next release with the stupid name.
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
push it with adb or use root explorer and mount r/w.

M.
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
I recommend using the folder on the sdcard (that way it will survive an update/full wipe).

But it could be that you have to reboot your phone after you have copied something into that folder before you can select that file
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
I have to correct myself.

The correct path on the sdcard is:

/sdcard/media/alarms

Greetings,

KBanause
[Desire Android Development] shoonari:
working for me path is /sdcard/media/audio/alarms

probably they are both correct?
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
Strange. I just tested it and only files in /sdcard/media/alarms have been listed (and only after I have done a reboot)

Greetings,

KBanause

Oxygen on androidcentral:)
[Desire Android Development] AlxMAX:
I have tried to recompile several APKs and I have encountered some problems. Each time I compile Launcher2.apk, I get a file which is around 397 kB. The original Oxygen 2.1.3 file has around 321 kB. What am I doing wrong? I have also recompiled framework-res.apk and I have got the same result: a bigger file. The APK file works OK though.

Given the way the article was structured, they ought to include a link to all the Android distributions for Desire, including Oxygen and DevNull.
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
If you are using apktool then it's normal that your recompiled files are different in size due to differences in how the tool is compiling the 9-patch-files
[Desire Android Development] ooie:
I've had this too and waiting 15-30mins to install stuff after flashing seems to be what makes it work. After that it's smooth sailing :D
[Desire Android Development] AlxMAX:
I compile the files directly from the sources (the Oxygen tree that I have downloaded a while ago with repo and synched each time I wanted to recompile). I think it's the aapt tool which deals with the compression.

Battery life on Oxygen

Just thought I want to share with any new user of Oxygen ROM, the stability of the ROM and it's long lasting battery life. I haven't shutdown/reboot my phone since I've installed Oxygen 2.1.3, and you can see that my battery has lasted 1.5 hours on moderate use and still has 29% to go. Cheers.

EDIT: 1.5 days!! lol. thanks for pointing that out. =P
[Desire Android Development] bobsie41:
1.5 hours!! Excellent lol

Bluetooth not working

I can't get bluetooth to work. When I check the box it seems to try to connect for a few seconds, then simply resets :(

I have the latest radio, but tried with the previous one as well. Not sure what else is relevant. It worked fine with Redux 1.2.

Any ideas?
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
My all time average 100-0% in battery monitor widget is 2 days 8 hours ;) I think for this one it averages all your battery usage since it was last wiped and works out what your average runtime would be if you let it run to flat.

It also quotes a standby time of approx 10 days if sitting on wifi/good reception... :O It's not a prediction that's in there specifically, but not hard to fool it into giving you a figure ;)

M.
[Desire Android Development] bigdan35:
That's all well and good saying it's 1.5 days. But what sort of usage did you do?! I mean - did you just leave it standing for 1.5 days or was the usage heavy/moderate/minimal?

To be fair, I can get approximately 17 hours or so out of battery life, and that's using apps not heavily, but like TweetDeck every once in a while etc.

I just want to know where I'm going wrong if you've got muchos usage + masses of battery life, jealousy strikes you see!

Ramdom reboots with Oxygen due 3G/HDSPA ARM9 modem CRASH

Thalamus,

I can confirm that after one week testing the crash problem with 3G/HSDPA network does not happen with stock 2.29.405.5 version. Same loader, same boot and S-OFF'ed.

I already have rooted and SOFF installed. And with Oxygen this ramdom reboot is happening usually once a day. Some days twice. Never less than once.

I do not have any other issue (apart of 3G network comsumption with 3.1.4 exchange email and my exchange acount as I said several post ago, but this is because my high number of emails and appointments, removing account solve the issue).

Attached the last_kmsg.

Thalamus, I know that you already said that this does not have anything to do with the kernel, this was cristal clear with your last message :) but what is the explanation to do not crash in stock rom? As I said several times before this never happen to me before going to Oxygen and during the week this never happens again going back to stock, and to be fair I would like very much the clean Oxygen version with no reboot. because this was the only problem I have with Oxygen. Only this, but enough to stop me using it (as I discover the rebooted phone after a while and I loose the calls).

Regards,

Manuel.

2.1.4 coming soon :)

http://twitter.com/#!/adamg_xda/status/81138332498792448
[Desire Android Development] justinkb:
wonder what has changed in 2.1.4 :) it's already so great...

gitweb seems to be down so sadly i can't quickly see what will be in it.
[Desire Android Development] schiznik:
Could you please take your discussion somewhere other than a rom development thread...

Back on topic, 2.1.4 will have the fixes for anything on the issue tracker thats set to 'patch available'
[Desire Android Development] do3in:
hmmm... Let's see who makes the first update, Oxygen or HTC.
[Desire Android Development] Alas2708:
I don't think that will be a difficult one to answer... it will be Oxygen of course! :D
[Desire Android Development] :
I have no idea. But if stock works for you, I suggest you use that.

Someone else who was having a similar issue found that going back to stock S-ON and then going through the whole rooting and S-OFF process again fixed it. Maybe you could try that.

Otherwise, there isn't anything we can do, and I'm not really inclined to spend any more time on it because there is only 1 person with the issue, sorry.
[Desire Android Development] AlxMAX:
I am still following the evolution of this issue, but for me it was not clear what radio version you have used with the stock ROM. Was it the one that came with the 2.29.405.5 RUU (5.11 if I remember correctly) or was it 5.17.05.08?
[Desire Android Development] treUse:
As I wrote in the NS thread:

I feel this is a good addition for Oxygen, since it adds more customization, while not adding bloat and ultimately enhances the experience of using this ROM.
[Desire Android Development] golf60:
to use s-off, first flash an old froyo rom and it should work....
[Desire Android Development] 10lexik:
I confirm ! I had this problem and i spend half a day to (re)install stock rom with the "UNLOCK HBOOT" so that the stock rom can flash everything.

Then i rooted my phone and S-OFF it, installing R2 oxygen HBOOT and installing 2.13 and now i don't have this error anymore.

:D

edit : i'm now on the very latest radio and have no problem with it.
[Desire Android Development] 10lexik:
It's a 5.11 version of radio that the stock rom 2.29.405.5 flash ^^ (RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_

Corrupted file download

Hi,

I'm having trouble downloading a file in gzip format. I always get a corrupt file. I'm using version 2.1.3, stock browser or dolphin browser.

To replicate, try downloading from torcache.net

http://torcache.net/torrent/640FE84C613C17F663551D218689A64E8AEBEABE.torrent (Slackware 12.2 DVD ISO)

battery drain

Battery drain is terrible, compared to my stock ROM.
[Desire Android Development] vnvman:
Made my day.

Edit: maybe even my week.
[Desire Android Development] dmxl:
How's that?
[Desire Android Development] ShirazSuleman:
There is no way it is the ROM or Kernel. You can be sure of that.

I've installed this ROM over 10 times, used different apps and themes, modified the ROM before flashing and changed a whole lot of other stuff. Not once has there been any battery drain, the battery life is excellent.
[Desire Android Development] vnvman:
Sorry man, it's really hard to believe that a stock rom has way better battery life than this. If it does, give it to me please :D
[Desire Android Development] dmxl:
Ahhhhh right. Ok, probably the little pixies then :)

Anyway, I tested by not installing any programs. Also, battery usage doesn't indicate the phone stays awake 24/7.
[Desire Android Development] puredesire:
Battery life is clearly the best with this ROM! LOVE it!
[Desire Android Development] balthor80:
yeah,

very bad battery life...

Does anybody know if Oxygen is affected by this malware? http://blog.mylookout.com/2011/06/security-alert-malware-found-targeting-custom-roms-jsmshider/

CyanogenMod has a security patch apparently.
[Desire Android Development] ouglouck:
"To date, we have identified eight separate instances of jSMSHider and because the distribution is limited to alternative app markets targeting Chinese Android users.../..."

I think we can say Oxygen is free of this Trojan. Anyway, Adam or Thalamus will easily (if necessary) confirm that. The problem is mainly by using alternatives markets... Same on any system (MacOS / Windows / Linux): if you don't pay attention to where and what you download then troubles can happen.

Would be curious to know how Cyanogen could be affected (if really) by that. I suppose they made a patch so chineese users using alternatives markets would not have troubles if doing crazy things with their phones. Only a guess...
[Desire Android Development] meno69:
This article does not insinuate that custom roms such as Oxygen contain Trojans (nor was I). This is more about the vulnerability that can be exploited by apks that are signed with platform keys if the custom rom is using the same private key.

CyanogenMod got around this issue by disallowing apps (signed with platform keys) on user-controlled storage.
[Desire Android Development] ouglouck:
Sorry, bad reading from me so.

Have to say I did not meant to offend you btw (just to clarify).

[Desire Android Development] mgmate:
I am currently using the one comes with RUU, 5.11.05.27.

But I tried the last one, even changing RILS but no change. I still have the loops.

In order to give a try I am now testing Ginger Villain (ManU 2.0), that uses base Thalamus kernel, but there is still an issue with 3G. It lost WCDMA, no crash but never comes to 3G without reboot (GPRS works well) this has sense because the crash is with CDMA).

I am now trying with ManU, 1.4 version (the ones that comes from Richard Trip). I do not want to advance until I have conclusive results (as conclusive as one week testing can be).

Regards,

Manuel.

I could try RUU and follow the process again but I am a little bit lazy for now, perhaps when I would have more free time...

I want to thanks to everybody that help me, and in particular Thalamus, with information and ways to investigate. This is very helpful and make me grow in this "technology".
[Desire Android Development] bigdan35:
Hey guys.. I've browsed the forum (obviously) but can't seem to find it anywhere.

Does AdFree work for Oxygen 2.1.3 for anyone else? I've tried it hundreds of times, yet it doesn't seem to work for me.

And right now I'm a little too lazy to play around with going in to ClockworkMod Recovery and mount the SD card etc etc.

Any other app which does this if it doesn't work? Though I should just not be lazy.

Dan.
[Desire Android Development] jadephyre:
Adfree works fine for me. Reboot the phone completely after Adfree has done its Job. It might just do the trick.

you going to move to the sgs2 adam? even at stock it's way faster than an o/c desire with a custom rom. imagine it with an oxygen/devnull equiv on there :D

He's moved, or is moving, to the Nexus S.

isn't the nexus S barely an upgrade from the desire though?

I really hate this battery life!!

It was minimal use, because i was on vacation!

Only 5 - 10 voice calls per day

5 - 10 sms messages and a little bit of internet surfing!

I use my brightnes on 40% most of the time and 100% when it is sunny.

I use brightnes switch in notification bar dim/40/100/auto

i would like a switch only 40%/100% is it possible to implement! (its anoying switching from 100% to auto and than dim so i cant see anything and than 40%) 40/100 would make things easyer!

btw battery drain is not an option!!
[Desire Android Development] niels_kievits:
In his case it's not all about hardware I think. The thought behind having a phone as close to the 'front line' that is android as possible seems logical if I where in Adams shoes. Seeing the 3rd nexus is yet to be released the NXS seems the logicaL choice.

As for me, I'm sticking to my desire untill more details of the new nexus come out.
[Desire Android Development] vnvman:
That's all good stuff, but still the nexus is a relatively old device nowadays, with all those duals around and quads next to come. Just my two cents tho...sorry, i'm done with spamming today ;)
